This week we're catching up (chickens and travel) and also talking about spontaneity and making space. You'll hear why there has been a bit of longer gap - and why there is no jaunty music this time. We would say this was a hard episode to record, but the truth is it was just as easy as always. We have appreciated our conversations as much we know you do - and we will miss them. We have appreciated our guests and all of you who have listened, messaged and shared the podcast over the last 6 years. It's truly been a joy. Thank you from both of us and we hope you keep in touch - and continue to share the message ... creativity counts, your creative life matters and just go and make it happen!Alice and Louise xFind our websites and sign up for our newsletters at:www.alicesheridan.com www.louisefletcherart.comFollow us on Instagram:@alicesheridanstudio@louisefletcher_artCredits: "Monkeys Spinning Monkeys" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License

This week, we're discussing all things studio. Both Alice and Louise recently completed major studio clean-upn projects, while Louise is overseeing the construction of a new workspace. What does it mean to set up a productive studio space? Is your space cosy or utilitarian? Is it helpful to get 'outside' help with planning or reorganising your space? And when is it time to make a change to your environment?Hopefully, our conversation will inspire you to take a fresh look at your own space - and maybe even have your own studio clear-out :)Find our websites and sign up for our newsletters at:www.alicesheridan.com www.louisefletcherart.comFollow us on Instagram:@alicesheridanstudio@louisefletcher_artCredits: "Monkeys Spinning Monkeys" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License

This week, Louise is joined by special guest Sally-Anne Ashley for a discussion on how to develop and nurture ideas within our art practice. This is a topic that we are both passionate about and, while we approach it in slightly different ways, our end goal remains the same. We both seek to find a focus that sustains us, while also staying open and experimental. During our conversation, we cover the importance of play, the need for self-acceptance, and the vital role that ideas play in our work.

This is a podcast about belief, embracing risk as a business owner and being open to creative opportunities despite lingering imposter syndrome. Today we bring you an inspiring conversation with muralist Daren Todd who transitioned in to art after his boss told him to go and follow what made him happy. From painting fences for free to a collaboration with IKEA there are plenty of ideas here to help you think more expansively about how your art can impact people around you, your community, and why it really matters. Key takeaways: keeping a short line from idea to implementation, continuing to experiment with new ideas and ways to bring your art to people, the importance of referrals and getting known for one thing and why 4hrs spent on SEO could really be am afternoon well spent.

This week we're diving into the challenges of making art when times get tough. Many people are worried about global issues such as wars, climate change and geopolitics, and these massive issues can feel overwhelming. Others are struggling with personal challenges, which can also make creativity feel impossible. So how do we keep creating in difficult times? How do we restore our equilibrium after we have been triggered into strong emotions? And how do we deal with feelings of guilt about doing something we love when others are suffering?We hope our personal experiences and challenges help anyone who is struggling with their own creativity due to external pressures.MentionedDish PodcastFind our websites and sign up for our newsletters at:www.alicesheridan.com www.louisefletcherart.comFollow us on Instagram:@alicesheridanstudio@louisefletcher_artCredits: "Monkeys Spinning Monkeys" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License

This week, we're talking creative capacity. What's the ideal environment for creativity to flourish? And when should we simply accept that there is no space left for new ideas? We suspect this is different for everyone, but in this episode, we do our best to unpack the issue as we see it, and hopefully offer some support to anyone who is struggling at the moment.

If you've got paintings stacking up, and you're either excited about what you're working on, or wondering where to go next, this episode is for you.
It can be tempting to think we have to re-invent the wheel with our art work, but truth is in following the clues from where you've already been... Today we have a few questions for you which will help you unearth and mine your own art history and build your confidence going forward because you realise all the things that you've already figured out!
We hope you enjoy this and would love to see you share your favourite question from today's episode.

We're back, and this week we're responding to a listener message all about reflecting on and recording your life (art and otherwise). Our conversations covers journaling, annual planning, and hopes/dreams for the new year. Yes we know it's an arbitrary date in the calendar, but there is something about winter that encourages us to slow down and take stock ... if you feel the same way, this is the episode for you.

Have you ever felt frustrated about how best to showcase your art so that collectors can see it in the best light? Today's guest is an expert at it - in fact she's made a second career out of bridging the gap between artists, art collectors, or just people who want a colourful home full of personality.
Alice welcomes Emily Hadley to Art juice and we talk about career transitions, staying flexible and remembering you get to create this in a way that suits you.
